Thanks to all for your nice comments. The table took me approximately 150 hours to complete. The steam bending of the black inlay gave me the most trouble. It is made of white ash that’s been ebonized . The thin strips kept snapping on me in the tight curves. Building the 2 axis router jig for the 2 different sized ovals was also quite challenging. Joining the sides of the drawers with sliding dovetails in a curved facade was another interesting challenge. I got the original idea for the marquetry from a beer coaster that I brought back from Prague. My wife is Czech and so is Jan Bulis and Gambrinus happens to be his favorite beer (and also mine!)

You know I really liked the table a lot….I mean who would love a table with a beer icon on top…LOL But then they guy in the Montreal Canadiens jersey….well sorry can’t do it , nope, what a terrible thing to do to a beautiful table…LMAO Seriously, the table is awesome and the logo is fantastic great job.
